DESCRIPTION

Experience the Samurai spirit in 3D with this high-quality Nodachi! The Nodachi is a traditional Japanese longsword, renowned for its exceptionally long blade, typically measuring around 1.5 meters (4.9 feet) in length, surpassing the standard katana in size. I've incorporated some creative elements into this model, such as the shark fin appearance at the blade's tip and a non-traditional Japanese handle wrap to showcase the wood of the handle.

Key Features:

  • Game-ready (tested in Unreal Engine 5)
  • Suitable for rendering, animation, and more
  • All textures and materials are included.
  • I've scaled the Nodachi based on Unreal Engine 5's mannequin
  • Clean topology with only Tris and Quads
  • Includes 3 FBX or OBJ files: one for the Nodachi, one for the scabbard, and one that combines both.
  • Also includes the blend file with the Nodachi and its scabbard, with all textures already set up.
  • Fully UV-unwrapped meshes.
  • PBR (Physically Based Rendering) Maps
  • The sword and its scabbard are centered at 0 XYZ
  • No clean up necessary
  • The model does not include any background lights and cameras used in the preview images.

Poly count:

Sword: Faces -> 11,601, Vertices -> 12,785 Scabbard: Faces -> 13,142, Vertices -> 13,294 Total: Faces -> 24,743, Vertices -> 26,079

Textures:

This model comes with 4K (4096x4096) PNG textures. I've also provided maps compatible with various software:

PBR format: Base Color, Normal, Metallic, Roughness, Height Blender format: Base Color, Normal, Metallic, Roughness, Ambient Occlusion Unreal Engine 5 format: Base Color, Normal, ORDP

If you wish to use this model in Unreal, simply import the FBX and assign the corresponding textures from the 'Unreal 5/textures' folder. (Read PDF 'Setup textures in Unreal 5' included in the Nodachi textures folder)

For Blender, all textures are already configured in the shading tab within the blend file. If you have any additional requirements, please do not hesitate to ask!

I created this model in Blender 3.6, and the textures were crafted using Adobe Substance 3D Painter (2023).

Thank you for taking the time to read this! Should you have any questions or requests, please feel free to reach out, and I will respond promptly

Geometry
No N-gons
N-gons are polygons with five or more sides which might cause issues in certain processes like rendering or animation. Learn more
No faceted geometry
Faceted geometry uses flat surfaces without smoothing, which can look unrealistic on curves.
Learn more
Manifold geometry
Manifold geometry ensures all surfaces are properly connected, avoiding issues like edges shared by more than two faces.

Textures & material
PBR textures
PBR textures simulate how light interacts with materials, making the model look realistic under different lighting.
Required PBR textures:
- Base Color
- Roughness
- Metalness
- Normal
Learn more
No embed textures
Embedded textures are stored inside the model file, increasing its size and sometimes causing compatibility issues.
Learn more
Square textures
Texture aspect ratio is the width-to-height ratio of a texture. Expected texture aspect ratio: 1:1
Learn more
Power of 2 texture sizes
Textures with dimensions in power of two (e.g. 512x512px, 1024x1024px) are used to optimize performance and memory usage.

Assigned materials
Materials are applied to the 3D model to allow visualize a model's surface properties and appearance.
Learn more
UVs & naming
No UV overlaps
UVs overlap when multiple points on the 3D model's surface are mapped to the same point on the UV island causing texture stretching.
Learn more
UV unwrapped model
A UV unwrapped model means its 3D surface is flattened into 2D space, allowing textures to be applied accurately.
